Let us recall that French President Emmanuel Macron, in his briefing after a conference held in support of Ukraine on February 26, said that NATO accepted the possibility of sending troops to Ukraine. According to him, alliance members discussed this issue but could not reach a consensus.
Additionally, the French leader announced the establishment of a coalition to provide medium and long-range missiles and bombs to Ukraine and called on Europeans to “produce more”. Macron announced that in the very short term, Europe can only transfer the ammunition it has in stock to Kiev.
